Overview

  • Four Software-Selectable Input Ranges
    • MAX1272: 0 to 10V, 0 to 5V, ±10V, ±5V
    • MAX1273: 0 to VREF, 0 to VREF / 2, ±VREF, ±VREF / 2
  • 12-Bit Resolution, No Missing Codes
  • 5V Single-Supply Operation
  • SPI/QSPI/MICROWIRE-Compatible 3-Wire Interface
  • 87ksps Sampling Rate
  • ±12V Fault-Protected Analog Input (MAX1272)
  • Internal (4.096V) or External (2.4V to 4.18V) Reference
  • Low Power
    • 1.5mA at 87ksps
    • 0.4mA at 10ksps
    • 0.2mA at 1ksps
  • Four Power-Down Modes
  • 8-Pin PDIP Package

The MAX1272/MAX1273 multirange 12-bit data-acquisition systems (DAS) operate with a single 5V supply. The software-programmable analog input accepts a variety of voltage ranges: ±10V, ±5V, 0 to 10V, 0 to 5V for the MAX1272; ±VREF, ±VREF / 2, 0 to VREF, 0 to VREF / 2 for the MAX1273. The software-selectable extended analog input range increases the effective dynamic range to 14 bits and provides the flexibility to interface 4-20mA powered sensors directly to a single 5V system. In addition, the MAX1272 provides fault protection to ±12V. Other features include a 5MHz track/hold (T/H) bandwidth, 87ksps throughput rate, and internal (4.096V) or external (2.40V to 4.18V) reference.

The MAX1272/MAX1273 serial interfaces connect directly to SPI/QSPI™/MICROWIRE®-compatible devices without any external logic.

Four software-programmable power-down modes (delayed standby, immediate standby, delayed full power-down, and immediate full power-down) provide low-current shutdown between conversions. In standby mode, the internal reference buffer remains active, thus eliminating startup delay.

The MAX1272/MAX1273 are available in an 8-pin µMAX® package. Both devices are available in the extended (-40°C to +85°C) temperature range.

Evaluation Kits

MAX1272EVSYS

Evaluation Kit/Evaluation System for the MAX1272 and MAX1273

Features and Benefits

  • Proven PC Board Layout
  • Convenient On-Board Test Points
  • Fully Assembled and Tested
  • EV Kit Software Supports Windows® 98/2000/XP with RS-232/COM Ports
  • EV Kit Software Supports Windows 2000/XP with USB Ports

Product Details

The MAX1272 evaluation system (EV system) is a complete, 12-bit, multirange, single-channel, data-acquisition system consisting of a MAX1272 evaluation kit (EV kit), Maxim 68HC16MODULE-DIP microcontroller (µC) module, and USBTO232.

Order the complete EV system (MAX1272EVC16) for a comprehensive evaluation of the MAX1272 using a personal computer (PC). Order the EV kit (MAX1272EVKIT) separately if the 68HC16MODULE-DIP module has already been purchased with a previous Maxim EV system or for custom use in other µC-based systems.

The MAX1272 EV kit can also be used to evaluate the MAX1273CPA (8-pin DIP).

Applications

  • Automatic Testing
  • Battery-Powered Instruments
  • Data Acquisition Systems
  • Industrial Control Systems
  • Medical Instruments
